According to Google’s blog, they are switching their web browser, called Chrome, out from beta-mode merely one hundred days after being unveiled to the public! This is a remarkably speedy changeover for Google, as the company is very well-known for keeping the “beta” label on many of their offerings, oftentimes for years!

The removal of Chrome’s beta icon, emphasises the impact it has made on the browser market, as well as its importance to Google. Google is clearly seeking to use the browser to entice internet users away from major web browsers Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox. Chrome is also supposed to make it simpler for Google to garner insights about users’ preferences, as well as broaden the use of its internet software, which are expected to work better with Chrome than with other browsers.

Since debuting in September, Chrome has drew in more than than ten million web-users from all around the globe, but even with these impressive numbers, Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox still enjoy the lion’s share of the web-browsing market.
